This newly updated and expanded second edition brings together the information that every trainee needs to know when faced with paediatric cases in their clinical practice and the FRCS (Tr and Orth) examination, as well as the European Board of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, FRACS (Orth), FRCSC (Orth) and the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery examinations. The content is organised according to body regions, with step-by-step guides to common paediatric orthopaedic operations. This new edition includes colour illustrations, additional clinical photographs, charts and radiographs, and updated management guidelines. Tips, tricks and avoidance of common pitfalls guide candidates to success in their examinations, and the book gives particular attention to areas of the syllabus that trainees find particularly challenging. The concise, evidence-based chapters are written by practising paediatric orthopaedic surgeons to reflect the core knowledge expected of a newly appointed consultant. This is the essential revision guide for the paediatric component of the FRCS (Tr and Orth) and other orthopaedic examinations.
